How it works
- Calories are calculated with the formula "METs x body weight (kg) x exercise time (hours) x 1.05". Working time is entered in minutes and converted to hours internally.
- The intensity options use about 4.3 METs for general carpentry and about 5.5 METs for interior/heavy work, based on representative values from the National Institute of Health and Nutrition's revised METs table for physical activity.
- Below the result, the calories are converted into bowls of rice at about 234 kcal per bowl to make it easier to picture the balance with your meals.
- It also shows an estimate of body fat converted at about 7.2 kcal per gram. Actual changes in body fat depend on diet and metabolism, so this is only a reference value.
- METs are only representative values for an activity, and actual calories burned vary by task, body size, temperature, and efficiency. Use the displayed figures as a rough guide.
- If you want to manage your energy balance precisely for dieting or health, do not rely solely on this tool's results; consult a professional such as a doctor or registered dietitian.
